I most certainly would NOT say this "fits most airsoft and paintball guns". Any respectable paintball marker isn't going to have any type of mount of anything like this. I would venture to say under 15% of markers would.

What on earth are you talking about? Almost every modern Tippman Marker is covered in Picatinny rails.

Spring piston rifles have been known to destroy scopes not designed for them. Also, how do you aim with a video camera taking the place of your sights?

The Centerpoint Action CAM works best on Airsoft and Paintball markers. Not intended for any Air rifles.

1. No one in a self-defense situation should be spending time turning on a camera on their gun.

2. If you're firing on someone in self-defense it is because you are in fear for your life. You shoot to kill. When you say 'Hospital', do you mean the morgue?

3. You'll be sued regardless. Every bullet you fire in self-defense should be expected to rack up $10,000 in legal fees defending yourself.

4. I doubt this camera would hold up to the recoil/vibration of most guns people use for self defense. Certainly not shotguns typically used for home defense, and you're not going to carry concealed with a giant camera on your sidearm.
Maybe a P90...

If there is a car mount im in for three so i can mount them in different angles without switching them all the time!!!

If there was/is a car mount, it's also a good idea for your own protection (and theirs) to video record any encounters you may have with our country's fine police officers, should you be unfortunate as to be pulled over.

They won't like it, but they can't legally stop you. Don't let them. They have no legal expectations of privacy when performing their duties in public, and certainly not when they're being recorded by the actual "accused" in a way that doesn't inhibit either the officer from doing his job, or you from complying with the officer's instructions.

I wouldn't mount this to a firearm. Get yourself a pair of those goggle video camera's that come up all the time instead. That way you can still use your optics and your video won't jerk everytime you fire. Also will add eye protection as a plus!

You can pick up the older version of the Contour Roam for about $80, better video resolution and I've run them on the quad rail of a 7 1/2" Adams Arms piston upper doing a 100 round full auto Beta drum dump. Good video can be had using the rubber strap mount to attach the camera to the rear of the stock also.

It should be pretty obvious which shots are the Contour in this video!

That's not at all what I said. I actually have had great expirence with woots customer service. My point was its not that much more for a camera with much better resolution, and the company selling it is reputable ( more so I am familiar with monoprices customer service than the manufacturer of this camera). Woot does not make this camera, nor is it manufactured for them, and that's a big diffence between the two products.
